NOTE: Although we refer to LGBTIQ inclusion, this course will also cover a broader spectrum of LGBTIQA+ inclusion.
A minimum of 2 participants from each organisation are required to attend. This program provides the tools to implement change, therefore participants should hold leadership roles or be in charge of areas like quality, accreditation, human resources, service design, evaluation, diversity and engagement.
Please complete the Application Form below, by selecting apply now. We endeavour to get back to you as soon as possible on your application.
Tasks are assigned prior to the first session and at the end of sessions 1, 2 & 3. These tasks involve practical activities at participants’ workplaces to start the change management process towards accreditation.
Important: Organisations can choose to be assessed against the 6 national standards through an external process undertaken by QIP in order to achieve the Rainbow Tick. The HOW2 LGBTIQ Inclusion Training can support organisations seeking to achieve this accreditation and is suitable for any organisation seeking to become more inclusive for LGBTI clients and staff.
